Item Description: Translate description
This beautifully preserved British Officer's Sword, dating to the American Revolutionary War period, features a 30.5" engraved blade marked at the ricasso: "Boutroy, Sackville St, London." The blade is elaborately decorated with foliate engraving.

The sword includes a classic brass clamshell guard, pommel, and grip fittings, measuring approximately 36.5" in overall length. The piece is complete, well-balanced, and displays an elegant martial presence typical of late 18th-century British sidearms.

These swords were carried by British officers during the Revolutionary War, particularly those of elite regiments stationed in North America. The maker, Boutroy, operated from London's prestigious Sackville Street and was known for producing high-quality officer's blades. The clamshell guard is a traditional feature of mid-to-late 18th-century British officer swords, often seen during campaigns from Bunker Hill to Yorktown. Its craftsmanship and maker's provenance add to its desirability as a collector's item.
